Capacitance

Capacitance is the ability of a body to store an electrical charge. A material with a large capacitance holds more electric charge at a given voltage, than one with low capacitance. Any object that can be electrically charged exhibits capacitance, however the concept is particularly important for understanding the operations of the capacitor, one of the three fundamental electronic components (along with resistors and inductors).
